World Sax Quartet meets M'BOOM - Live in Serravalle Scrivia '10

"Nearly three decades have passed since that glorious 1981 evening,
when an audience of three thousand gathered in the cathedral of St.
John the Divine to hear what Max Roach called a “Grand Collaboration”:
a concert by M’Boom and the World Saxophone Quartet."

Two evening ago i've recorded this "new collaboration" : it's a pleasure
to see these two ensembles fuse together!
